Willyville Guy

I predict he’ll be a Heisman finalist and have the Sooners back in the playoffs next year.

Way to wait until the last minute and get my hopes up, Kendall.

I saw online that today is the last day for underclassmen to declare. Should see some action this afternoon.

That’s a big one. Mr. Reliable.

Wilkins. Yes please.

Couldn’t agree more about the outgoing staff. Not sure yet about the incoming guys. I don’t know anything about Hafley other than his former position, which at least addresses an obvious need. Mattison on the other hand... I have respect for the guy but we already have an old D-line coach. I also want to see what happens with the LB spot. Just a lot of movement and (unlike the changes on offense) it’s not entirely clear to me how it’s all coming together. I get that Day’s been HC for about a week so I’m content to sit and watch what he does without a ton of anxiety. For now.

Seems like a lot of chaos on that side of the ball and I’m not sure I see a clear upgrade. Reserving judgement.

In summary:

Amazing! The QB competition this year is going to be wild. Normally there’s a ton of love and brotherhood even among guys competing with each other. But in this case Tate Martell has been trash talking for weeks. Not sure how that will play out.

I like Grinch as a potential long-term DC for the Bucks, but he has not distinguished himself during his time at OSU as a coach or a recruiter.

That’s a huge one!

Do it for the culture, Gene!

He seems fine with it.

Now Herman’s going for it on 4th down and slamming his QB into the line repeatedly. #legacy

Herman giving Georgia the Urban-underdog treatment?

When we needed him the most in 2011, he gave us his best. I’m forever grateful.

I liked Fowler’s comment after the last TD: “The Huskies kick open the back door!”

? Well, Happy New Year and Go Bucks!! Deep breaths until kickoff.

I’m relying on three things to ease my nerves: 1. Dwayne Haskins 2. Urban’s last game 3. Washington won’t be able to keep up That said, I know nothing about the Huskies other than Peterson gets a ton of respect nationally and apparently they have a sweet secondary.

Gotta love it.

No surprise to OSU fans but I guess now it’s official. He should go ? “Haskins received a first round projection from the NFL’s college personnel advisory board, which is a group of personnel people that advise college players about where they’d likely get drafted if they decide to turn pro before their college eligibility is over.” https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/12/23/draft-advisory-board-tells-dwayne-haskins-hes-a-first-round-quarterback/

Applies equally to Fields and also Patterson coming back to Michigan next year for another shot at the Buckeyes. Tate’s an interesting guy. Is it true that he didn’t lose a single game in high school?

If Mathis for Fields is the tradeoff I would do that deal in a heartbeat.

I agree that Haskins should probably take a lesson from Cardale and enter the draft while his stock is high. Meanwhile, does OSU’s interest in Fields indicate that the coaches don’t like the way Tate is coming along? And if so, and if Fields goes elsewhere, could Baldwin be in the mix for 2019?
